Wake Up

One day you're going to want that guy.

That guy that knew he wasn't perfect,
but tried to be perfect for you.

The guy that believed the scraps of you he was given were worth it,
because something was better than nothing.

That guy who wanted nothing more than to be there for you,
and loving you was the only way he could.

The guy who sees your flaws,
but values them as much as your strengths.

That guy who still can't bring himself to hate you,
even though sometimes you probably deserve it.

That guy who saw past your pretty eyes,
and treasured parts of you that no one else has ever appreciated.

The guy who realizes he may never have your heart,
but will carry the image of you in his forever.

That guy that sees this and still LIKES you,
regardless of how self consumed you are.

That guy that should have you and your heart,
but doesn't.

Even though he deserves it.
